1853. SCLATER, P. L. A Synopsis of the Galbulidse by Philip Lutley Sclater, M. A., 



F. Z. S. 8vo. jjp. 10, and cover. 



Keprinted, with additions, from Jard. Gontrib. Orn., for 1852. The author recognizes of 

 Galbula 11 spp., of Jacamaralcyon 2, of Jacam^erops 2, of Galbuloides and Galbalcyrhynchui 

 each one. In using this synopsis the author's later paper, P. Z. S., 1855, pp. 13-16, should be 

 consulted for some important rectifications.— The cover of this publication gives some valu- 

 able bibliographical data respecting that erratic publication, Jardine's Gontrib. Orn. for 

 1848-52. It appears that the Contributions were begun in the middle of 1848, during which 

 year three parts appeared ; in 1849, seven parts were published, forming a volume, with 27 

 plates ; in 1850, seven parts, forming a volume, with 21 plates ; in 1851, six parts, forming a 

 volume, with 14 plates; in 1852, seven parts, with 20 plates, forming a volume.
